Re: EU Referendum Result - Your Views
I am very happy for all the Brits who badly wanted a leave but very sad for those (nearly half of the country!) who wanted to stay in , as I am not optimistic at all!
Unlike many other EU countries the UK depends on its neighbours to feed its population. It imports its cheese, dairies, fruits, vegetables, cars etc...
The drastic drop of the pound might make all these things very expensive as they will imported goods and all the more expensive with the fall of the pound.
The young economical and dynamic force of EU workers French, Italian, Polish etc..(78% fully employed paying taxes compared to 74% working Brits) who are not straining the NHS as they are young and fit , will have to leave and give place for the genuine refugees that the UK will have to take, in accordance with its Nato agreements.
The fall of the pound will attract investors from all over the world, who will flock to buy properties in London which will become more and more unaffordable.
As an outsider I might be wrong and I hope I am but but this is the way I see things and I find it very worrying and unpromising for the generation of young Brits.

Frantically searching drawers for euros to exchange while the pound's down!
Lol many people run to the bank in Asia to buy pounds but they were sold out by lunch time!

I think they will Malcolm and I think they might leave the UK this time.
So yes many big changes ahead for the UK.
I know that many people are all nostalgic of the good old times but you can not turn the clock back imo, past is history.

We don't have to sell our houses etc either we need them to house our own people. We do need proper rules and laws now to protect us something I was told we couldn't have while in the eu.
Sadly the UK preferred to sell its agricultural lands in order to develop its financial centres and economics. London was the business centre of Europe ,since the UK has no farming or industries, but many economists say this financial center might move to Paris now.
